INDUSTRY APPLICATIONS OF OUR SILICONES
Conformal Coatings- are used to protect rigid and flexible printed circuit boards from environmental contaminants and vibration. Quantum Silicones' conformal coating products are very low viscosity, one-component, thermally cured liquid silicone elastomers. These products have excellent dielectric properties and can withstand temperatures from -60 to 240C.
Encapsulating and Potting Materials - are the ideal choice for protecting sensitive electronic components from extreme environments. Silicones encapsulants withstand temperatures from -115 to 300°C while protecting the components from vibration, moisture and atmospheric contaminants. Quantum Silicones' product line consists of both tin and platinum curing systems in a variety of durometers and cure speeds, We also have thermally conductive materials and flame resistant silicone adhesives that meet UL 94 V-0 requirements.
Liquid Silicone Elastomers are used to coat a variety of fabrics like fibreglass cloth to be used for electrical sleeving, airbags, roof structures and pressure sensitive tapes. These liquid silicone elatomers typically adhere to fabrics without the use of a primer. Quantum Silicones' products are medium viscosity, two component thermally cured silicone elastomers. All of them have excellent dielectric properties and can withstand temperatures from -40 to 240C.
Moldmaking - Silicone moldmaking materials are used extensively to create molds that will produce exact replicas of picture frames, statues and furniture. Whether you are casting polyurethane foam, polyester or low melt alloys like bronze you can count on Quantum Silicones moldmaking materials to deliver exact replicas time after time. Silicone moldmaking materials consist of two components. A liquid base and a catalyst or curing compound. Tin curing silicones give you a wide range of softness, viscosities and curing speeds to choose from, while platinum curing products offer less shrinkage and heat accelerated curing. Quantum Silicones has a broad range of silicone tin and platinum curing moldmaking products that can handle just about any moldmaking application.
Silicone Gels are two component (1:1 mix ratio) platinum curing materials that cure to a very soft gel like consistency. These silicone gel products are used for protecting extremely delicate components from vibration and mechanical shock, as well as keeping them safe from water and atmospheric contaminants.
